INTRODUCTION

The S.E.5a is one of the most recognizable and popular of
all the WW1 Biplanes. You can now have this great looking
and flying aircraft as an electric without the mess and fuss
of a glow engine. With today's LiPo batteries and micro
servos, small electrics have become very popular. Now
Great Planes brings you the S.E.5a in a small, easy to fly,
ARF electric. So if you want to impress your glow flying
buddies with an electric, the Great Planes S.E.5a EP ARF is
just what you need.
For the latest technical updates or manual corrections to the
S.E.5a EP ARF, visit the Great Planes web site at
www.greatplanes.com. Open the "Airplanes" link and
select the S.E.5a EP ARF. If there is new technical
information or changes to this model a "tech notice" box will
appear in the upper left corner of the page.
We urge you to join the AMA (Academy of Model
Aeronautics) and a local R/C club. The AMA is the governing
body of model aviation and membership is required to fly at
AMA clubs. Though joining the AMA provides many benefits,
one of the primary reasons to join is liability protection.
Coverage is not limited to flying at contests or on the club
field. It even applies to flying at public demonstrations and
air shows. Failure to comply with the Safety Code (excerpts
printed in the back of the manual) may endanger insurance
coverage. Additionally, training programs and instructors are
available at AMA club sites to help you get started the right
way. There are over 2,500 AMA chartered clubs across the
country. Contact the AMA at the address or toll-free phone
number below.
IMPORTANT!!! Two of the most important things you can do
to preserve the radio controlled aircraft hobby are to avoid
flying near full-scale aircraft and avoid flying near or over
groups of people.
PROTECT YOUR MODEL, YOURSELF
& OTHERS...FOLLOW THESE
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Your S.E.5a EP ARF should not be considered a toy, but
rather a sophisticated, working model that functions very
much like a full-size airplane. Because of its performance
capabilities, the S.E.5a EP ARF, if not assembled and
operated correctly, could possibly cause injury to yourself or
spectators and damage to property.
